That was the first thought that crossed my mind when I saw this photo:
Mitt’s 6’2″ (viz. Teh Google), so Randy’s, what, 5’4″?
The photo was taken yesterday during Mitt’s folksy little stopover at LaValley Building Supply in West Lebanon, NH (great store, BTW), just a hop and a skip from Romney’s debate-prep HQ, the $3.9 million vacation home of former Massachusetts Lt. Gov. Kerry Healey near Woodstock, VT.
So Randy got to spend “ten or fifteen minutes” with the Mittster — after first getting the full Secret Service patdown and then standing around LaValley’s waiting for Mitt to finish a series of satellite interviews with national TV outlets.
For that, and many other juicy details about what it’s like to be adjacent to a Mitt Romney “availabillity” (Mitt had no time whatsoever for the local press, who were shooed forcefully out of the store by Romney staffers), I strongly recommend Paul Heintz’ account on the Seven Days website. Fun stuff.
Good one, John. Herr Brock looks like he’d make a good hardware store manager (maybe not trust him to make a key), or maybe the photo should read: “Boss congratulates employee on years of loyalty, then fires him to hire tall fetus.”
Time to come out of the closet–aisle.
if he tried hard he could stop being a Republican… but he can’t do anything about his height.
